=={{header|ALGOL-M}}==
The eponentiation operator ** in ALGOL-M works only on integer operands.
<syntaxhighlight lang = "ALGOL">
begin
write("5**3**2 = ", 5**3**2);
write("(5**3)**2 = ", (5**3)**2);
write("5**(3**2) = ", 5**(3**2));
end
</syntaxhighlight>
{{out}}
The third expression results in a value that exceeds the maximum integer value of 16383. Sadly, ALGOL-M emits no warning or error message when this occurs but simply gives the wrong answer.
<pre>
5**3**2 = 15625
(5**3)**2 = 15625
5**(3**2) = -12955
</pre>
=={{header|ALGOL W}}==
The Algol W exponentiation operator always produces a real result and requires an integer right operand, hence the round functions in the following.
<
write( "5**3**2: ", round( 5 ** 3 ** 2 ) );
write( "(5**3)**2: ", round( ( 5 ** 3 ) ** 2 ) );
write( "5**(3**2): ", round( 5 ** round( 3 ** 2 ) ) )
end.</

Kotlin does not have a dedicated exponentiation operator and we would normally use Java's Math.pow function instead. However, it's possible to define an infix function which would look like an operator and here we do so for integer base and exponent. For simplicity we disallow negative exponents altogether and consider 0 ** 0 == 1. Associativity would, of course, be the same as for a normal function call.

Line 876 ⟶ 1,060:
It turns out that the parser is so blind to "**" that we cannot even quote it. The following are identical:
<
print(quote(5^3))</
Another method is to use "^" as if it is an ordinary function of two arguments. It appears that "**" does not support this. As there is no potential for ambiguity in the operator precedence, we will not print this result below. For example:
<
is clearly (5^3)^2 i.e. 15625, whereas
<
is clearly 5^(3^2) i.e. 1953125.
As for actually solving the task, the requirement that each output be on a new line causes us a surprising amount of difficulty. To avoid repeating ourselves, we must almost resort to metaprogramming:
<
invisible(sapply(inputs, function(x) cat(deparse(x), "returns: ", eval(x), "\n")))</
Alternatively, we could print out a matrix or data frame:
<
print(data.frame(Inputs = sapply(inputs, deparse), Outputs = sapply(inputs, eval))))</

Note that the reduction forms automatically go right-to-left because the base operator is right-associative. Most other operators are left-associative and would automatically reduce left-to-right instead.

=={{header|Red}}==
In Red, operators simply evaluate left to right. As this differs from mathematical order of operations, Red provides the <code>math</code> function which evaluates a block using math rules instead of Red's default evaluation. One could also use the <code>power</code> function, sidestepping the issue of evaluation order entirely. All three approaches are shown.
